Abstract
IN the summer of 1929, a party of four scientific men, led by Henry C. Raven, of the American Museum of Natural History, left New York to visit the homelands of the gorilla in Africa. The doyen of the party was W. K. Gregory, the leading authority in all that relates to the structural history of anthropoids, living and extinct. The two other members were Prof. J. A. McGregor, known at home and abroad for his faithful reconstruction of extinct forms of humanity, and Dr. E. T. Engle, anatomist, Columbia University. The expenses of the expedition were paid by that University.
